An anal fistula is a sinus tract and fistula formed from an infection of the anal sinuses and glands. During the infection phase, there is a possibility of swelling, pain, and pus discharge. This discharge may be yellow pus or pus mixed with blood. Regardless of the color, it is crucial to seek prompt medical treatment at a hospital and undergo thorough treatment, rather than attempting conservative treatment on one's own.
